道院艺术博物馆

门票很贵，博物馆很小，尽管里面很漂亮但还是觉得有点不值得。不过比起大都会来说，这边就是人相对少一点，而且周围环境很美。

我昨天去了道院艺术博物馆,环境不错,而且是免费进入的,可那不是我去那里的原因。我去了了这个博物馆,老实说,我真的太失望了!也许因为这是在美国,所以很多人会觉得这其实已经是挺正宗的道院了,但请相信我,这里面根本就没把中世纪的道院,礼拜堂和教堂那种真实的精神给传达出来。里面并没有这样一个神圣的地方所该有的东西,也没有所该有的那种格调。他们把各式各样的物品收集起来,还有一些建筑物,就这样把它们胡乱拼在一起,如果只是这样的话,那我觉得你大可不必千里迢迢跑来这里,去纽约大都会艺术博物馆就行了。对于那些住在美国的,对那些珍品不想看也不想了解的人来说,来这里也无妨。但对于那些想真正看看中古世纪的建筑的人们,我建议他们去欧洲或是中东吧。我已经去过许多这样的地方了,相信我,真实的物品更具感染力,尽管它们可能因为遭遇窃贼的缘故,物品不是那么的多。你可以在那些地方的庭院里静静地坐在阳光下,身心放轻松,尽情地享受那美妙的时光,但如果你没时间的话就算了。真的,道院艺术博物馆不值得你去花20美元(140元人民币)!

我觉得这里是值得来游览的,但是你可不要认为这里和中央公园的大都会艺术博物馆一样。来这里游览2个人只要140,但是在这里的藏品很多,从某种程度上来说,这里更像是一个交流的场所,因为在拥挤的参观之后,你还可以来这里逛逛。如果你打算去道院艺术博物馆,你可以乘快速铁路到190站下车,接着你再坐电梯到山顶的入口,再向北边走几步路就可以到达博物馆了,沿途你还可以欣赏到哈得逊河的美丽景观。

每次去纽约,道院艺术博物馆总是我第一个会去玩的地方。原因很简单,因为这里有很多收藏品和展览品。这里有很多地中海风格的中世纪艺术品,是中世纪时期的一些僧侣搬到这个博物馆来的,这些东西是在崔恩堡公园装好的,从这里可以看到哈德逊河的漂亮风景,河那边是新泽西。千万不要错过这个地方,买好午餐,花一天的时间在那里好好玩玩,可以在花园和修道院里面欣赏,也可以在外面散散步。然后可以欣赏一下那些漂亮的展览品了。

坐落在岛的北端,中世纪艺术,在一个漂亮的公园中。靠着地铁线,很棒。

在纽约参观道院艺术博物馆真是一种享受!那里清幽而宁静。早上或下去去那里看看真的很棒!看看大家的评论吧!绝对超值的观光,祝你玩得开心!

The grounds are really nice. Very quiet, you don't feel like you are in NYC. The museum setting was very nice. There were not a lot of relics within the museum (which I like, you aren't overwelmed). Nice.

What a treasure! Situated on the very northern end of Manhattan Island, The Cloisters, fashioned after a medieval monastery, houses one of the great collections of Medieval Art in North America, as an extension of the Met. Exquisite artistic examples of the period can be viewed within its wall, but it is an island of tranquility perched high above the Hudson River. Hard to believe the rest of Manhattan sits but a few miles south. Romantic day trip, not easily reached but you are greatly rewarded for the effort. Try and make a reservation at the nearly New Leaf Café, a cozy restaurant hidden in the woods. Even for a drink.

One of the better small museums anywhere Great collection of antiquities and well worth seeking out this small gem.The Cloisters is small enough to get through it intimately yet its collections are very deep and also informative. The buildings themselves are truly lovely also If its the unique and special you seek gives this a go.

Not many tourists will make the trek to the Cloisters, so you should! It's quite a ride out there on the subway (be sure and map your route out), but totally worth it! You'll be surrounded by art, architecture, and antiquities as far back as the 1400's. And it's quiet....sooooo quiet, you'll love the escape from the busy hustle and bustle of NYC. Take your time at the Cloisters, plan to spend the afternoon. It has beautiful views, courteous staff, and a museum store full of fascinating books. It's isolated, so if you're hungry, eat first before heading out there. Not to be missed!!!!

This would probably be very interesting for travelers who have not been to Europe. If you have done some European traveling, the Cloisters may not be that impressive. Some of the artifacts were interesting, but the architecture was just average to me. We enjoyed the park around the Cloisters very much though; it is fairly quiet (being out of the way) and had some great views. If you take the subway up, you'll have to walk through the park to get from the station to the monastery. As the Cloisters is part of the Met, you can pair these two activities and only pay one entrance fee if you visit both within a week. Suggested entry fee is $20 per adult, but you have the option of paying whatever you want.

I have visited the Clositers on several occassions and it is always such a pleasure. No only do you get to see the famous unicorn tapestries, but a wealth of intricatly created medieval art is displayed as well. The historic gardens are wonderful to stroll through as well the view of the Hudson.

I grew up across the street from the cloisters, and time has not changed it. Well that is not quite true, it appears that it all belongs to NYU now. Kind of like being in a different country.

This museum was on my bucket list for years and years. Ive always been interested in seeing all of the artwork and beautiful grounds Ive heard so much about. I visited by myself so I was able to take my time and look at what I wanted for as long or short as I wanted. I took tons of pictures and tried my best to read up on the art I was viewing. The place was packed on a summer day. I remember seeing a sign to get in was like $25 or you could pay what you could which is what I did. LOL. I had to store my backpack in the locker which was fine with me because it was easier to maneuver in and out the crowd, The educational history, architect, grounds (gardens, flowers, statues) and overall scenery were breathtaking. This place is a must see!

Take the subway uptown, way uptown, walk up a decent sized hill, and you'll find yourself in the beautiful Cloisters. The buildings themselves are beautiful, quite a peaceful. The artwork in such a setting conveys a real sense of the middle ages. I never get tired of visiting. There are peaceful walkways, fountains, places to sit. And then there are the lovely grounds all around if the weather is nice (which is why I don't recommend a Winter visit). The gift shop is also a great place to pick very nice nicknacks (a cut above most gift shops). The only negative is that the cafe is overpriced and not very good. Still, you're there for the gorgeous rooms, artwork, and gardens, not for the food.
